Chapter 168: Top Five
"Mom, I know. I’m not a child. And this time, I’ll be with the school; there will be so many others," Chu Ning explained with a smile.
"Okay, Xiao Ning, rest early then. Don’t stay up too late." Mother Chu then continued to tidy the house up.
After she and Father Chu finished their day’s work, there was almost no leisure time left. They rested at around eight o’clock each night and had to wake at five or six o’clock in the morning, working more than twelve hours daily without rest days.
Chu Ning looked at her mother’s exhausted figure. Although Chu Ning’s mother was not yet fifty years old, she looked much older than her years.
Chu Ning felt a slight heartache. She had been there for such a long time. Other than buying her parents a set of clothes for the Dragon Boat Festival Gala, she had not done anything for them.
Chu Ning decided to add some new appliances to the house when she returned, including new furniture.
In fact, she hoped that her parents could move into her villa, but as her big brother had told her, it was impossible for them to do so in the near future. The couple did not want to accept gifts from their children. In their opinion, the happiness of the next generation was far more important than their own.
Chu Ning finished packing her things, washed up early, and went to rest.
